I read a topic on GF and I thought it was quite interesting: http://www.gamefaqs.com/boards/114533-fire-emblem-fates-conquest/72274623
Maybe some of you think this is irrelevant or pathetic, but it got me thinking as to how more characters can be written "differently" as opposed to the same old tropes.
"In FEA most, if not all S-rankable females are virgins, some guys can be argued as virgins as well and most characters who can marry exhibit first love into marriage syndrome.
Does this game change this idealistic notion of first love to marriage at all? I can see how Zero is maturely written and this is definitely a step in a different direction. But after reading the supports a bit, I'm still feeling that the first love to becoming the one and only love to marriage is still prevalent. For example Camilla and Hinoka both exhibit this tendency, saying the Avatar (M) is the only one they loved and have loved for a long time etc. But both are the first princesses, so I guess virginity to them is very important, not only that but this is set in medieval times where chastity is quite valuable. I think I might be thinking too much but with the inclusion of Zero and Shara, I thought characters will exhibit less virgin tendencies and the writing will not always be first love --> marriage type trope."
